Abstract

An arrangement for connection between motor controller electronic components and silicone controlled rectifiers (SCR) (29) contained within the controller circuit is presented with line and load straps (15, 16) being arranged on the bottom surface of the motor controller compartment at opposite ends thereof. The SCR's (29) are positioned under the compartment on an elongated heat-sink support plate (18). Intermediate block connectors (22) interconnect the SCR's (29) with the controller line and load straps (15, 16).
